Yeah we've heard all the flamers opinions, but lets try and be civil.

Obviously it is just a 98 custom with a few upgrades on it but lets look at this from an economical point of view shall we? [By the way, I will be saying this in canadian funds so don't get too shocked if the prices seem high]

Regular 98 Custom:

Gun alone: $175-$200
E-Bolt: $390
Werks Barrel: $80
Drop-Forward: $30
Double Trigger: $40

Total: $715-$740

Where as this Pro E costs 400 dollars less.
Obviously some of you don't like the way the CUSTOM PRO looks on it... or that E on the grip (Personally I think the E looks catchy and kinda unique).  But you can always mill off the CUSTOM PRO part and even add your own little thing if you want.

We all were hoping for something a little better from Tippmann when we heard they were releasing (a) new marker(s) but this is the perfect option for those of you (like myself) who really love 98s but dont wanna spend the extra hundreds of dollars of equipment like an e-bolt or a decent barrel.

Kudos Tippmann for releasing a good paintball marker with good upgrades at a fraction of the old cost. Kudos.
